Abstract: A method for prognostic or diagnostic assessment of a gastrointestinal-related disorder, such as ulcerative colitis, in a subject correlates the presence, absence, and/or magnitude of a gene in a sample with a reference standard to determine the presence and/or severity of the disorder, and/or the response to treatment for the disorder. The method enables identification of the effectiveness of candidate therapies.

Abstract: A method for assessment of the suitability of a target therapy for a gastrointestinal-related disorder, such as ulcerative colitis, in a subject evaluates the presence, absence, and/or magnitude of expression of one or more genes in a 19- or 5-member gene panel in a sample. The method enables identification of the effectiveness of target therapies prior to starting a patient on such therapies.

Abstract: Novel polypeptides (CNGH0010) and antibodies, including specified portions or variants, specific for at least one such CNGH0010 polypeptide, variant, or fragment thereof, as well as nucleic acids encoding such CNGH0010 polypeptides and antibodies, complementary nucleic acids, vectors, host cells, and methods of making and using thereof, are useful for therapeutic and diagnostic formulations, administration and devices. The aforesaid polypeptides can be used to generate human, primate, rodent, mammalian, chimeric, humanized and/or CDR-grafted anti-CNGH0010 antibodies. The CNGH0010 polypeptides and antibodies are used in modulating or treating at least one CNGH0010-related disease in a cell, tissue, organ, animal, or patient.
